Lillian Cornelius Student File (#4159a)

Student file of Lillian Cornelius, a member of the Oneida Nation, who entered the school on January 19, 1895, graduated in 1903, and ultimately departed on February 18, 1903. The student did not attend the school continuously, but left and reentered. The file contains student information cards. 

In school documentation Lillian Cornelius' name is also spelled Lilian Cornelius and Lillie Cornelius. Her married name is Lillian Tibbetts (Mrs. Fred Tibbetts).

Note: Three students named Lillian Cornelius (all from the Oneida nation) attended the school. (All of them were also referred to as Lillie, Lily, or Lilly at times.) This naturally led to some confusion in the school's recordkeeping. Documents for the three students were located in student files 4159 and 6128. We have tried to correct filing errors and collect records for the same student in one place. Therefore you can find documents for Lillian Cornelius who entered in 1895 and departed in 1903 under file 4159a; documents for Lillie Cornelius who entered in 1885 and departed in 1890 are in file 4159b; documents for Lillian Cornelius who entered in 1911 and departed in 1914 are in file 6128.
